Series of classes: The Confidence Booster

with Gen Kelsang Dragpa 

A special series of teachings and meditations on how we can find peace of mind, learn special ways of dealing with challenging situations and increase our self-esteem and confidence.

Sometimes we can be our own worst enemy. An overly critical view of ourself will make us feel uncomfortable, drain our energy and make us unhappy.

“Happiness and suffering are feelings – parts of our mind – and so their main causes are not to be found outside the mind.”

Excerpt From – How to Understand the Mind
Geshe Kelsang Gyatso

In the weekly meditation class we will learn how to break bad habits of mind and connect with our own good qualities instead. When in meditation we learn how to identify with our good qualities, we will gradually become more free, confident and joyful in daily life, and our relationships will improve.
